Mid-Columbia tells North Bend board it is training drivers and boosting family communication
Summary
Mid-Columbia briefed the North Bend School District board on driver and monitor staffing, extra training on student interactions, and steps to improve family communication; a manager will attend an upcoming workshop. No board action was taken.
Brian Shuldberg of Mid-Columbia updated the North Bend School District #13 Board of Directors on April 3 about the contractor's bus staffing and training efforts.
Shuldberg told board members that Mid-Columbia is tracking driver and bus monitor staffing levels, running additional training focused on staff interactions with students, and improving communication protocols so families are more aware of student behavior incidents. The minutes record that "Gary will attend the managers workshop." No formal motion or board direction was recorded during the presentation.
Board members did not take a vote on transportation staffing at the meeting; the presentation was recorded as an information item. The district will continue to work with Mid-Columbia on staffing and communication as the school year proceeds.
The presentation is documented in the meeting minutes under "Mid-Columbia Bus Presentation."
